Abstract: 1373465 Pipe couplings HYDROTECH INTERNATIONAL Inc 14 Jan 1972 [15 Jan 1971] 1919/72 Heading F2G [Also in Division E2] In large bore pipe couplings, in which the pipe ends 41, 81 are gripped by tapered slips 50, 88, 95 actuated by hydraulic rams, machining is facilitated by replacing the usual annular pistons and cylinders by a circumferential string of small cylindrical cylinders 56, 106, 97 having pistons 57, 58, 106, 110 and 98. To hold the pipe end more securely, oppositely tapered slips (15, Figs. 1, 2 and 2A, not shown) may be used. The same effect is achieved, in Fig. 8, with succeeding double tapered slips 88, 95, alternating in direction of taper. Thus slip 88 is more tightly wedged on attempting to move pipe end 81 to the left and slip 95 is more tightly wedged, on attempting to move pipe end 81 to the right. To provide a permanent connection, a hardenable fluid, such as epoxy resin is used as the hydraulic pressure medium.

Abstract: 469,118. Grinding-machine tailstocks. SCRIVENER, A. Jan. 23, 1936, No. 2126. [Class 60] [Also in Group XXII] A tailstock with a single lever control for a grinding or like machine has a longitudinal slot in the body portion, a slide block on the barrel, movable within the slot, and mechanism associated with the lever and slide block whereby the lever is adapted to control the whole of the operative movements of the barrel which is brought forward to the work by spring pressure. The lever j, Fig. 3, when rotated in an anticlockwise direction serves to rotate through gear teeth k, Fig. 2, a toothed quadrant l; a stud n on the latter engages a slot in one end of a link p which is pivotally connected at its other end to a block r sliding in a slot s in the tailstock housing and fixedly connected to the tailstock barrel. The barrel is thus retracted against the pressure of springs f, Fig. 1, finally passing the deadcentre position of the link and pin, the former coining to rest against a pin u when the barrel is held stationary by the springs. Opposite rotation of the lever allows the barrel to be fed forward by the springs until the centre b mounted in antifriction bearings c, d, contacts the work, continued rotation of the lever j moves the stud along the slot in the link p without further movement of the band and finally draws the clamping pads h together to hold the centre in the working position. In a modification, (not shown), the link and gear segment are replaced by a lever engaging a roller, and a pair of pawls retain the barrel in its retracted position.

Abstract: 564,745. Sealing leaks in riveted &c. joints. THOMPSON WATER TUBE BOILERS, Ltd., J., and NAPIER, A. L. Feb. 12, 1943, No. 2323. [Class 123 (ii)] [Also in Group XXII] A method of sealing a leak in a joint of a boiler drum &c., comprises applying fluid, e.g. coloured water, under pressure to the leak from the outside of the drum so that it penetrates the leak in a direction inwardly to show up the source of leakage internally of the drum, and then sealing the leak at this latter point. The sealing may be effected by caulking and/or, if practicable, by using red lead paste &c. as the pressure fluid. As applied to a riveted joint, a rivet 2 is removed at the point of apparent leakage and a stopper plug inserted into the rivet hole. The plug is made in two parts 4, 5, the part 4 having a screwed shank 6 and the part 5 a coacting tapped hole 7, and, as shown, the shank 6 is of such a size as to provide an annular space between itself and the rivet hole to which pressure fluid is supplied from a cylinder 20, or gun, through a spring-pressed ball-controlled nipple 9 on the plug part 4 and through passages 11, 12 in the latter. Fluid-tightness between the plug 4, 5 and the rivet hole is secured by rubber washers 24 or by internally-located cup washers. The invention may also be applied to joints embodying bolts or screws, and to welded joints.
